Product Information

Gatemaster Autolocking Drop Bolt (ADB) | Solid Steel

This robust autolocking drop bolt is designed for securing double gates and can be either welded or screwed in place. Its clever design ensures that the lifting plate sits between the two gate leaves, preventing the dropbolt from being lifted unless the gate is unlocked.

Available in both weldable and screw-fixed versions, this dropbolt is suitable for use with metal or timber gates.

  • Made from solid steel
  • Diameter of dropbolt: 19mm
  • Dropbolt movement: 100mm

Features

  1. Auto-locking Mechanism
    The drop-bolt is manually lowered and twisted so its lifting plate folds around the edge of the first gate. Once the second gate closes, it locks the bolt in place, making it impossible to lift until the gate is reopened. 
     
  2. Heavy-Duty Build
    Constructed from solid steel, available in either galvanised or stainless-steel variants for corrosion resistance and durability 
     
  3. Bolt Dimensions
    19 mm diameter drop-bolt with a movement (throw) of approximately 100 mm (4")
     
  4. Mounting 
    Installation type:
    - ADBS: Screw-fixed 
     
  5. Left/Right Compatibility
    Can be oriented for left- or right-hand gate setups, simply by rotating the lifting plate before mounting 
     
  6. Simple Installation
    The screw-mounted version requires just two 15 mm drilled holes and uses self-expanding fasteners; the weld version, on the other hand, needs a locating tube welded into the gate post with lift-plate alignment. 
     
  7. Adaptable & Secure
    Compatible with steel, aluminium, and wooden gates. Its design prevents spread or forced opening when both gates are closed — even under wind or load
